[quote=Anonymous]Mostly I wish I had not pursued a field that required so much education with such a low cap on earnings (library science). The money is not good enough to justify graduate school loans. I like my job and feel like it is important and worthwhile (and I"m great at it). But you shouldn't need a 3 year masters degree to do it, or if you do, you should make more money. Especially in DC where these jobs are competitive. I work with a decent number of people who have joint JD/MLS degrees and they still aren't making much more than I do. It's dumb. We either need to be more willing to train people on the job or make graduate school for fields like this less expensive. The current situation makes no sense at all.[/quote]
